ARC Review: Almost Like Love

Almost Like Love by Abigail Storm

Publisher: Montlake Romance

Source: Netgalley

Genre: Romance, Chick Lit, Contemporary, Romance

Synopsis (from Goodreads):

Television writer Kate Meredith is having the day from hell. First, her show was canceled. Then her fiance left her for another woman. Now, she's courting disaster by flirting with the hard-bodied, tattooed, motorcycle-riding bad boy of her dreams - who also happens to be the man who fired her.

If people had told Ian Hart that he'd be firing Kate in the morning and dancing with her that night, he'd have laughed in their faces. Despite her leggy body, the sweet but geeky redhead isn't his type. At least, that's what he thinks before spotting her in a club wearing an outfit that reveals her surprisingly delectable assets.

Before he knows it, Ian becomes Kate's knight on a shining motorcycle, escorting her home to prevent her from running off with some random guy. But when the night is over, "Little Miss Boring" and her sexy former boss just might turn their oh-so-wrong feelings into something very right.

My Review:

Kate Meredith is probably having the worst day ever known to mankind she received a double whammy! She loses her job, her fiance dumps her which I think is a dick move (sorry for the language) and then she is convinced by her bestie to dress up outside her comfort zone for a night out of the town. After only a couple of drinks Kate is more then determined to find a Mr. Bad Boy to a fun night with, she runs into Ian.Ian has just fired her because of the bad ratings which is a big thing in television. He is Mr. Corporate Shark but he has a secret no one knows about as a bad boy he has the piercings, tattoo and even owns a bike all the things Kate wants and Ian comes to her rescue loads of times regarding her dickwad (sorry for the language) ex.Ian and Kate fall for one another but our Mr. Bad Boy Ian has had a rough time with the L Word, so thats a big issue with them. But when Ian faces his feelings for Kate, she wants nothing to do with him and now he has to try and win her back.Even though the humor wasn't consistent through the whole book, I really did enjoy this book, cant wait for more from the author.
